Dove Hunting Season Boosts Local Economies

Dove hunting season is in full swing across several states, with favorable weather conditions prompting strong migrations and successful hunts. Nebraska and Yuma, Arizona report high activity, with Yuma drawing hunters from seven states and significantly boosting the local economy. The US Fish and Wildlife Service notes robust dove populations, ensuring sustainable hunting practices. Meanwhile, Oklahoma and Kentucky prepare for their respective hunting seasons, with Oklahoma emphasizing safety measures for deer archery and Kentucky expecting a similar deer harvest to last year. Indiana's put-and-take pheasant hunts registration opens on September 11, offering hunters additional opportunities later in the year.
